Rarely seen Revolutionary War map shows the seat of the Battle of Yorktown, where the British General Cornwallis surrendered on October 19, 1781, effectively leading to the end of the war with Britain. This map was published in the November 30th, 1781 edition of the magazine, not long after the battle. The map shows soundings in fathoms, the locations of Rochambeau and Washington's armies, as well as those of the ill-fated Cornwallis. A French fleet is located off of Cape Henry. Published by John Bew.
